Random Pics From Home

I drove home for the long weekend for some family time.

Mak's garden is blooming with flowers.

Ini buah kedondong. Baru je tanam dah berbuah, pokoknya kecik je, tak sampai paras pinggang pun.

Siapa tak pernah tengok pokok kucai, macam ni la rupanya...ada flowers yang cantik.

Confused

My brain and my heart is having a fight

I think I am my own worst enemy (for now)

"WE" are trying to sort this out

Cant Sleep

Its almost 2a.m.

I doze off earlier...woke up about midnite.

Cant go back to sleep.

Must be the late dinner. Ate too much because i skipped lunch.

Bad idea.

So what do i do.

Eat some more....

Good morning!

Oxygen

FACT:

'Oxygen can lift that feeling of depression, will improve circulation sending invigorating oxygen to your brain and all your muscles. '

I'm sure you've heard that before!

Anyway, pagi ni pukul 7.30 baru terjaga. Alarm subuh pun tak dengar...ishhh.

Dah bangun, tengok weather pun cool je...i decided that my brain needed extra oxygen to trigger some happy brainwave....Lagi pun dah lama tak ada pyhsical activity. So i drove all the way to the famous Tasik Shah Alam. (famous apa tau...tempat orang dating...sapa2 yg pernah duduk/ study kat Shah Alam tau sangat la kan). I tak pernah dating sini okkaayyy;-)




Nak jogging takut sakit2 badan esok. Almaklumlah....since i quit gym way back when.....tak pernah exercise. So, brisk walking saja....low impact.




The last time i was here must have been more than 5 years ago. Best jugak la kat sini.Boleh datang lagi.







Did the oxygen work??? I guess so. Rasa lebih energetic.



Sudah sudah la melayan emo Anne....start keje!

Mood Swing

I was allright, on a good mood in fact since Jan 1st.

Today, after one phone call and an email (both unrelated), i'm not doing so good.

A bit angry...a bit depressed.

Worst still there's no one to blame.

Its not even too big a deal.

I am consoling myself. I cried a little..then i went to sleep for a while.

Of course i prayed a little 'doa' . That always helps.

and now i'm blogging about it, hoping that by typing this out, it gets out if my system.

See, i feel better already.

(forgive me if i sound like a nutcase)

Baju Kurung Pahang

Kenapa I ambik gambar depan cermin ni?????

1. Sebab baju ni mak kasi masa raya haji. Hehehe, dah tua ni pon mak belikan baju raya...

2. Sebab ni first time la buat baju kurung style pahang ni...ada orang panggil pesak gantung (betul ke??) OK tak? I agak suka pulak cutting ni. Boleh buat lagi...ni bukan beli ready made...tailor seumur hidup, Ah Lian yg jahitkan. Upah Ah Lian untuk style pahang RM40, extra sikit. Baju kurung pesak biasa RM30-35 je...complicated sikit katanya....l

Ni saja mengada nak posing close up sorang-sorang. I had a meeting tadi petang. Meeting 3.30pm...pukul 2 dah siap. Sempat la posing dlm 'office' i kejap.

Semangat & excited lebih sikit sebab hari ni kick off project baru...first meeting for 2009, first project for 2009. Job kecik je tapi Alhamdullilah, kecik pun syukur.

10 Muharram

Tahun Hijrah 1430...hari ni jatuh 10 Muharram, atau Hari Asyura.

Kepada kawan2 bloggers yang puasa sunat hari ni, selamat berpuasa. Semoga ibadah anda diberi ganjaran oleh Allah SWT.

Kalau masa kecik2 dulu, kalau hari Asyura, saya akan ingat bubur Asyura yg mak buat, dan jiran depan rumah yang kami panggil Mak Tuan. Jiran lain ada jugak hantar bubur, tapi tak sehebat bubur Mak Tuan.

Pagi ni saya google sejarah di sebalik Hari Asyura, dan saya kongsi di sini antara info yang saya dapat tentang signifikan di sebalik hari ini.

A little pep talk would do us good:-)

Don't worry!

Don't worry about how long it will take, or what others will think of you, or how difficult it will be. Just get busy and do it.

Instead of wasting your time and energy on worry, use that time and energy for action. Instead of visualizing what you don't want, create what you do want.

Of course there will be challenges, painful mistakes, embarrassing moments and difficult efforts. But instead of worrying about them and making them worse, just go ahead, work your way through them and get them over with.

Worry fills you with doubt, and doubt eats away at your dreams. Choose instead to take action, with so much relentless determination and intensity that there's no room for worry.

Even though there will always be problems, you are truly capable of greatness. Imagine yourself fulfilling that greatness, starting right now from where you are with what you have.
Then jump enthusiastically into the journey.

Forget the worries, and bring your best possibilities to life.

-- Ralph Marston

Fresh

Brand new year...a fresh start.

Renewed spirit and determination.

I set the alarm super early.
Only to wake up to a tummy ache and a headache..........
Bummer!!!!!!

But its still early...hope the minyak angin can fix this
Its still a long day ahead.

Australia The Movie

When Jill asked me to go watch this movie with her, i said no initially. I imagined a western kinda flick...which is not my thing...and i dont usually enjoy Nicole Kidman.

I went anyways.

I couldnt have been more WRONG.

I loved the movie. Good story, beautiful cinematography, enjoyed the entire 3 hours.

It was like reading a good story book.

If you havent seen it, go watch it while its still playing.

p.s...ladies, Hugh Jackman is hot...almost McDreamy hot:-D
